These cupcakes were a disaster! The frosting was too runny and the cupcakes were dry.

I had some trouble getting the cupcakes to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed these cupcakes. The chocolate cake is moist and flavorful, and the frosting is light and fluffy.
